I know that the Mac Mini is a minimalist system in all respects, so I'm not
expecting game-playing video performance.

The Adobe CS3 package says that it requires an "OpenGL 1.4-capable" video
card for certain 3D aspects of Photoshop.

Does the Mac Mini meet this requirement? I looked at the tech specs on the
Apple site but could find no mention of OpenGL compatibility.

Thanks,

The tech specs *do* tell you what kind of graphics card is present. A
Google search for "intel gma 950" resulted in the very first link being
<http://www.intel.com/products/chipsets/gma950/> which specifically
lists OpenGL 1.4.

Ah. Did see the Intel chip listed. Didn't know you can look up said chip and
see compatibilities.

Thanks!
